摘要:
A testing apparatus for making photometric measurements with a light beam having a spatially ill-defined energy distribution. A detector (29,30; 91) for receiving the light beam and having a spatial variation in its sensitivity over its sensing area. A diffuser (91,97) is provided which is disposed in the light beam for intercepting the light beam before it strikes the detector. The diffuser is formed of a white-like plastic and has a thickness which decreases progressively towards the outer edged of the same to compensate for the fall-off in sensitivity of the detector to rays closer to the outer margins of the diffuser or away from the center of the diffuser. The diffuser is formed in two portions in which a portion (97) of the diffuser is in substantially closer proximity to the detector (91) than the other portion to minimize the directional sen- s i tiv i ty of the detector.

Electronic displays encounter visibility issues due to varying ambient light conditions. An ambient light sensor can be provided to sense ambient light and dynamically adjust display brightness to compensate for changes in ambient light. A wave guide for improving angular response in a light sensor is provided.
摘要:
A solar sensor that utilizes a blocking element and curved reflective element between the sun and a photo-sensitive electronic device to provide high signal levels and the ability to shape the angular response of the overall sensor. A particular angular response can be achieved by combining the attenuating affects of the blocking element with the increased response affects of the curved reflector. These two elements may be combined into one physical structure, or may be separate. Further, the present invention contemplates the use of multiple blocking elements and multiple reflectors.

There is described an optical radiation sensor device for detecting radiation in a radiation field. The device comprises a sensor element capable of detecting and responding to incident radiation from the radiation field and a radiation window interposed between the sensor element and the radiation field. The radiation window comprises a non-circular (preferably square) shaped radiation transparent opening. The optical radiation sensor device can be used in a so-called dynamic manner while mitigating or obviating the detection errors resulting from the use of a circular-shaped attenuating aperture and/or angular (even minor) misalignment of the sensor device with respect to the array of radiation sources when multiple such circular-shaped attenuating apertures are used.

The invention relates to a radiation measuring device, especially for measuring high power radiation (10), comprising a measuring window (12) and a deflecting unit which can guide at least one part of the radiation which is to be measured (10) from the measuring window (12) to a sensor unit (14). According to the invention, the deflecting unit comprises at least one bar (16) into which the radiation (10) is injected via the measuring window (12), parallel to the longitudinal extension (18) thereof, via a side (70). The radiation is retransmitted along the longitudinal extension of the surface (18) bar to the sensor unit (14).

The proposal is for a sensor (1) to detect electromagnetic radiation with a detector (3) to detect the radiation in which the dependence of the sensor signal on the direction of incidence of the radiation impinging on the detector is very low. The sensor comprises a lens or lens system (2) with a positive focal length arranged in the beam path in front of the detector. The detector is arranged in the beam path in front of the focal point produced when radiation impinges in the peripheral region (11) of the lens or lens system at an angle of incidence of zero degree. The arrangement and sensitivity ranges of the detector are such that, when radiation impinges at an angle of incidence of zero degree, only a part of the radiation impinging through the lens or lens system contributes towards detecting the radiation.
